The Harmony 895 is a powerful universal remote that lets you take full control of all your devices from DVD to lighting. However, you do need patience, as getting the set-up just right is time consuming. I also had issues with build and the RF...

Total remote control coming to a living room near you

Logitech has done just what it needed to with the Harmony 895. They took the 885, still an excellant remote control, and added the feature it sorely needed, RF technology. The unit has a good ergonomic design coupled to a screen while not touch...

Useless and irritating - keep clear of this
